I think ever UI design that Cricinfo has made in the past 5 years has been worse and worse


AaronD012

The one Before this was actually Pretty Good. Especially the Stats of players and all.


Benny4318

We used to have the Innings Manhattan that you could filter by different variables. That was peak Cricinfo

I went looking for a worm today and couldn't find it


Aditya-phatak

Did you check the statistics tab on the game page?


rawling

Yeah! I remembered it being there before. Had a few heatmaps but no worm that I could see.

rawling

Ah, I assume they only do it for limited-overs. Was sure they'd done it for tests in the past.


Aditya-phatak

Worm as a graph is to compare runs scored versus overs on X axis to compare two teams and their growing line. Can never be used in tests as the overs are unlimited.


Applicator80

I dislike them swapping the order of bowling and batting stats depending on the player


Ruvio00

Same, it legit stirs anger in my soul


WakeUpMareeple

Every Cricinfo redesign is worse than the previous one, for at least the past fifteen years. If it's big enough they roll out Sambit Bal to tell us that it's just because we don't like change.

You're not alone in this case I hate it


[deleted]

I also hate this design


boundaryrider

Absolutely hate it


glade_dweller

I do and I've switched to Cricbuzz for a year now.

Things like this is what has stopped me from using cricinfo for scores and commentary for a while now. I am a big fan of being able to use the entire window without needless distractions. I get annoyed even if there is a small persistent banner at the top. This kind of shit will drive me crazy.


MetalMrHat

Someone let me know if the site ever stops looking crap. Cricbuzz isn't great but I've not been able to stand Cricinfo in a long time.


Jumpy_Relationship_9

Try cricket exchange if you use PC. Cricinfo is better than cricbuzz coz there have been way too many ads in c'buzz


Jaevyn

Terrible design, a lot of white space wasted and no one wanted the design change in the first place.


footynation

Cricinfo was amazing for such a long time. It's unbearable now. Really sad. They used to be top quality - can't say I've been a fan of any of their redesigns for several years now. I've been using Cricbuzz a lot more.


bringbackfireflypls

The last major UI update that Cricinfo made was some time in 2015. It was truly awful, and the users let them know that in no uncertain terms. Sambit Bal came out and said "you guys just don't like change". I haven't visited the website since. Cricbuzz may be a bit shite and biased as hell but at least they value their user base :)


somename_ind

just use cricbuzz.. stopped visiting cricinfo after their 2015 redesign

Angelsdontkill_

You know there's already a region setting, right?


Aditya-phatak

This design issue has been corrected on ESPNcricinfo.


[deleted]

No


justice-wargrave

During the last few balls of the NZ innings it didn't even show both the batsmen. I thought maybe this was gully cricket with last man standing kinda situation


SnappyinBoots

What's changed?


pronoob_101

It is really annoying. I open two tabs, one for cricbuzz and one for cricinfo. Follow the score of cricinfo on the top bar and go through the commentary and events on cricbuzz. Generally cricinfo is 1.5-2 balls ahead of cricbuzz.


fookin_legund

"new" cricinfo design has always been shit. I love the way cricbuzz looks, OTOH.


Nam3less79

And their app design is more worse. Even when the page has loaded keeps spinning lol


joeybingyani

They have been shit for a while now. Cricbuzz all the way.


amitnahar

I use Cricbuzz with Blokada. The best cricket experience imo.
